There are some major changes coming to TSO.I know I keep saying it but this is the final time.Some things happened last night that have possibly reflected negatively on us due to a lack of honesty, trust, and being up front with one another.TSO is supposed to be about family and community, and I know that you squabble with family and issues can arise, but we are supposed to work them out.I let myself be swayed by people in to turning TSO in to something that it is not and was never supposed to be...*We are not a formalized Coven*We do not have a set tradition*We do not have formal classes that require homework*We do not shun people based on experience or lack there of, or for any other reasonIf that is what anyone is looking for, we my not be a good fit for you, but some people wanted us to be that and I let that want sway how I really felt in my heart and things got out of hand.We are a global family, a tribe of people who are supposed to work together and lean on on another, not have discourse and drama and when we do, we are supposed to work it out.So, here is the rework:*The group and the page are going to flip flop in a sense. Instead of teaching classes by myself on the page, I want to hold classes here in the group that everyone can participate in. We all have a forte, and we all should be teaching and learning with one another. I am going to make a sign up sheet with dates, and if you want to teach a class on something you are knowledgeable about, please sign up!That way we all can learn new things from all over with many different people.*The page will now be used for public events and other little informational posts about us and Paganism/witchcraft, but the meat of TSO will be in here. This may make us seem a bit more exclusive, but really it is just adding a bit of mystery to something that can already be shrouded in mystery.*Sabbats will still be public celebrations, regardless of where they are held, and will be open to all to come join us. (that means all of you in here)*There will no longer be requirements for membership at this point either (since we are not a formalized coven) but will be based on invitation only after we have met and got to know you. This will be reflected in our bylaws.*The bylaws...like I said before the bylaws should be common knowledge and courtesy. From time to time we may break these things, and that is ok. We are human and we make mistakes. But let's work out our issues and actually talk with one another instead of letting things stew. If we can't work together, we can't grow.

That is it for right now and I will add more as I think of it.I have a hard time expressing what it is that I want, but I guess I will just have to show everyone instead.
